Bubba Wallace, one of the most hilarious names in all of sports racing, and probably the most disliked driver of all time is seen in this video being booed by the audience. This took place at the NASCAR Cup Series at the Martinsville Speedway after he came back from a suspension in which he was accused of cracking into Kyle Larson on purpose and causing a wreckage. The announcer was introducing the drivers at Martinsville and the audience ripped off a huge amount of boos when he said Bubba Wallace. These were some big time boos, maybe more than any driver we've seen in ages!
Auto Racing 1 reported on the incident:
“There’s a lot of good things going into this weekend. I’m not coming back with a vengeance or anything like that,” Wallace told reporters Saturday, via NASCAR.com. “I’m just going to continue to do what we’ve been doing. And for the record, I have talked to Larson, and we had a great conversation this week. I think the best thing for us is we both understood where our frustrations were and moving forward and how we both can handle those situations better.”
Wallace said he also spoke to the 23XI racing team, owned by NBA legend Michael Jordan and NASCAR star Denny Hamlin, and was told to avoid situations that placed the organization and sponsors “in a bad light.”
“They were understanding of the heat-of-the-moment type things, but they were very adamant about how we need to handle those five seconds later,” the No. 45 driver added. “You need to think, like I said earlier, you need to think before you do. That was the biggest thing. They still support me, and we’re here. Just have to go out and continue to build this team up.”
